git.centos.org
by Phil Wyett 19 Dec '16

19 Dec '16

Hi, As default we use CentOS and firefox. Browsing git.centos.org is horrible. On machines I have the browser dies until it loads what I see as not needed content. The site is listing dups of repos with different paths. E.G. https://git.centos.org/summary/!!!!!rpms!git https://git.centos.org/summary/!!!!!rpms!git.git The whole experience is horrid for devs and users. Can we look at it, you are the core SIG.

CentOS workflow - git.centos.org - Notifications
by Phil Wyett 18 Dec '16

18 Dec '16

Hi all, There seems to be changes being made to repos on git.centos.org without any notification to developers/users. Example: Today 'centos-git-common' has been changed twice. According to: https://wiki.centos.org/Sources patches should be sent to the devel list. We are left in a situation here, if patches or notification of change is not sent to the devel list, developers/users are left to self discipline updating regularly the repos they use or blind luck to know of a change. Can we look at new processes for the notification of change?

Security and other updates - too slow
by Phil Wyett 18 Dec '16

18 Dec '16

Hi, How is the core SIG looking at improving and speeding up (more than one person) builds of updates? As I see it the longer the time between vendor release and CentOS release people know that we are hittable if they have a viable exploit? I ask this as I see that the core SIG is not concentrating on the job at hand and concentrating on the work of their new masters - Red Hats CentOS? Their heads are in the cloud. ;-) Regards Phil -- Google+: https://plus.google.com/+PhilWyett Blog: https://philwyett-hemi.blogspot.co.uk/ GitLab: https://gitlab.com/philwyett_hemi/

missing rpms in extras
by Jacco Ligthart 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

Hi All, I think there are some rpms missing in the 7.3 extras repository. This is not a complete list, but just the items I missed. from the items needed for building 7.3: [DIR] nss_wrapper/ 2016-11-16 12:38 - [DIR] cmocka/ 2016-11-16 12:22 - [DIR] python-hypothesis/ 2016-11-15 13:24 - [DIR] python-cryptography-vectors/ 2016-11-15 13:23 - And some older items: [DIR] python-pretend/ 2015-11-20 01:07 - [DIR] python-iso8601/ 2015-11-20 00:57 - (items are cut-n-paste from buildlogs.centos.org) As far as I can see they are missing both in the normal mirrors as in the vault.

Centos on P8 824L OPAL
by Charlie Berry 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

Hi team: Want to run 7.2 on an IBM 824L bare metal on OPAL firmware. Seems like this should be OK. Any gotchas? Also, will want to run Nvidia CUDA 8 for packages for RHEL. I have a vote that this should be OK. Any other gotchas? Thanks for the sanity check.

Core SIG documentation - The community project
by Phil Wyett 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

Hi, I look around and see very little documentation of what the core SIG and other SIGs for that matter as to what they are doing and how they wish to help and bring people into the dev process. Note: I emailed the list about the paris meeting days and Karanbir said info would come out. None has come out, so when? The CentOS wiki is outdated and only allowed to be edited if you get access to do so if you carry good grace. It is time we start changing and as the project/community speeds up and diversifies with what they use CentOS for, is the leadership to move with that and maybe add more people, document those people as in what they do so we know points of contact and how people can contribute. At the moment if you look at list traffic, we seem to cover the same issues and if you use IRC, the Core SIG is all about Cloud. Can we have a public discussion about CentOS structure, Core, Other SIGs - What are the goals of CentOS?

Hi, Here is an update on the recent works done in CentOS Community Container Pipeline * We got weekly scan in place for images in registry.cenots.org * Vert.X stack for eclipse che is now setup. * registry.centos.org is now running in NFS to handle large number of images. * Rabbitmq is now available from registry.centos.org * keycloak-postgres is setup to run in openshift * Bayesian dependencies are now available from registry.centos.org * Jenkins is now polling the proper branch of git repo to track the changes and rebuild images. Our current focus of work are: * Setting up openshift node cluster for scaling up build speed * Putting checks in pipeline to avoid cyclic dependency * We are also focusing to solve the issues with build worker to continuously building the images.

Fwd: Vagrant boxes (7.2.1511)
by Carlos Rodrigues 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Hi, Now that CentOS 7.3 has been released, vagrant boxes have become broken when the vagrant-vbguest plugin is used to build guest additions at creation time due to the "kernel-devel" package matching the running kernel not being available in the default repos anymore (since the base repo is not cumulative with older point releases). Of course, once there's an official CentOS 7.3 base box available, the problem should fix itself, but a somewhat important usecase remains broken and it's why I'm posting this: Using vagrant is especially useful when you want reproducible environments, and this includes pinning the base box to a particular version. As it stands, new CentOS point releases permanently break this usecase and I believe it would be important to have a solution for this. Best regards, -- Carlos Rodrigues
